            Bug ID: 215945
           Summary: No way to get user buffer in ll_driver->raw_request of
                    hid driver sent via hidraw HIDIOCGFEATURE
           Product: Drivers
           Version: 2.5
    Kernel Version: 5.17.5
          Hardware: All
                OS: Linux
              Tree: Mainline
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: USB

        Regression: No

I am writing support in the custom hid driver for the screen built into the Thrustmaster T248 steering wheel.

Unfortunately, I can't send what I want in any way and I have to repeat the flow of their Windows Kernel Driver.

They use a dll to communicate with the screen, which sends a feature report via HidD_GetFeature, which is sent to their kernel driver and they use one report id per bunch of actions:
ef 75 .. .. ..
ef 17 .. .. ..
ef 7d .. .. ..

And unfortunately (as I understood from the source code) hidraw_get_report sends an empty buffer to my raw_request and I can't understand what this report about.

It would be nice if it was possible to take the user buffer from somewhere.
